Ugh.. SAY IT AIN'T SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Ouch that sucks!!! Towel trick or Sending away to MS should do the trick. Hopefully they will put one of those slim and sexy 65nm Falcon chips in there.
bummer dude.
I don't even know what to say.
maybe you could get natalie portman and bury it in a cute little graveyard like in garden state. I bet that would cheer you up!
Damn, man. These 360s are falling like dominoes.
Is there anybody who this hasn't happened to?
^^^
Excellent song.
@tristero- It hasnt happened to me and I've had mine for just under a year now.
@hushgush- I lol'ed at the thermometer.
@coonskin
I'm about to get my first XBOX 360 in the mail and I haven't met anyone personally who hasn't had any problems. I'm glad to hear that yours is doing alright. Maybe some of your luck will rub off on me.
Poor Topher. Who's gonna talk shit about the next crappy Live Arcade game they give us now?
I think of it as a positive thing, now HushGush has more time to make quality graphics for Dtoid. Right, Topher? :)
TOHOHO DID IT! I SAWDED!!!
GAMEGOBLIN: l-o-fucking-l. good picture :D
:,'(
i feel your pain. mine didn't red ring, but it sure did broke. disc drive stopped reading discs. expect to be w/o a 360 for, oh, 2 months.
lol @ towel. i'm sorry topher, i'd be infuriated if that happened to me. atleast you still have your other consoles, i'm stuck with much less :]
huh dis
lollers I thought that thermometer was a pregnancy test.
Atheistium with the point.
This happened after you brought the dog into your homestead.
Horror approaches.
Man all these 360's dieing is begning to scare me a little. It hasent happend to mine yet and I would be sooo PISSED if it happend before I got to play Bioshock.
Dude that sucks. It also happened to me a while back.
Hopefully the towel trick will work for you.
It didn't for me.
another one bites the dust. here's a cute picture to ease your pain.
I'm still 360less, but my brother-in-law's launch box is still fine too.
Time to play Wii for a few weeks?
My heart goes out to you. It happened to me around February, right in the middle of an 8-man LAN game of Gears. I was just a tad bit inconsolable.
Thank you, Bahamut, that's very kind of you.
I toweled it last night, now it plays for about 5 minutes before it dies again. Same thing with or without the HDD connected. I'll be ordering a coffin for it today.
Topher, don't towel it. If you do it too often, you will only totally fubar your internal components. Unless you know for sure you will get a totally different box from MS when you send it for repairs.
Nah, I just did it once or twice. Now it's just laying on the floor so I can give it dirty looks until the box gets here.
Ok, just to be safe :)
I hope you'll have it back soon! There is also a brazilian fix as short-term solution. Also not recommended..
Pew, that's not funny, my friend died that way
My box is fine. I got mine early last year and it still works, but my friend bought one last month and it red-ringed the very first startup. It was so f'ing ghey.
Sorry to hear of your recent loss. Hopefully you'll be back up on XBL soon.
Poor baby has Red Ringworm. Just give it some hot tea and toast and it'll be up-and-at-'em in no time.
is my xbox360 the last of the lunch batch not to red ring*knock on wood*??
I stole your post for my clog. Sorry. :(
//Shameless plug.
jaja luzers. ib had my 360 4 over 2 years now & ib never had a problem . even on xbla 4 players all niters. so don't say that its all bad . suck it up princes
Yeah, that sucks. I'm now on my 3rd Xbox 360. The first stopped reading anything and the second got the red rings. It's like a once a year thing with me now.
